It's an intellectual exercise.
Humour me.
And Old Skoo, I agree. "Trueno" or "Levin" would be great. I also really don't care ultimately what it gets named, but I do think, for the same reasons as you, that branding the car a Scion would be stupid. Just as calling it a "Celica" would be equally stupid.
